BALTIMORE March 29.-William Z. Harding, Rich
ard *. Fox'S representative, who was referee in
the prize fight between Jimmy" Mitchell, of Phil
adelphia, and paddy" Smith, OF Brooklyn, VINO
fought at Philadelphia yesterday for the Police
CARTE diamond belt and ST. 600, arrived here this
morning on his way to Chicago. His description
OF the escape OF the spectators from the trap
where the fight took place is interesting. He was
arrested on the roof OF building adjoining that
In which the fight took place, but finally gave the
officers the slip. Harding says the battle was the
best ever fought since "Bily" Edwards and 'toam''
Collyer fought and that both Mitchell and Smith
are well worthy to fight for championship honOrs.
He declared the fight draw, because both men
were repeatedly guilty of fouls and the crowd
would not leave the ring. 1t is his opinion that
Mitchell might have won had the crowd kept still
and not attracted the police.
In regard to "Jake" Kilrain, Harding said that
Richard X. Fox would back K1lrain to fight any
man In America for the heavyweight diamond

The Double Cars Fail to Appear on
14th Street This Morning.

The patrons OF the l4th-Street line looked up and
down the line for the double cars this morning
but saw them not Then they sorrOwfully took
the boO-tai and reflected On the mutablity of
the plans Of street-car companies as they passed
up their tickets to the fare-boX. The withdrawal
OF the double cars put on the service
yesterday caused considerable conjecture,
pany to leeiing on the part OF the ofticers OF
The company on account OF the resolutions
passed at Saturday nights meeting, to still keep
their forces modified and their petitions in circu-
latOn with the view 10 renewing active hOstilittes
at any moment. Some OF the more conservative
think that they should have met the concessions
OF the company with more friendly front.
PRESIDENT HURT EXPLAINS THE NATTER
About noon to-day Prof. Harry King, OF the
committee representing the 14th-street liners
boarded an Avenue car and proceeded tn West
Washington to see President Hurt and ind out what
the trouble was. Mr. Hurt informed him that the
double cars would be on the line again this even

the company TO Withdraw them permanently. The

ment winch would be OF advantage TO all concerned.
Mr.. Hurt, In the course or his conversation, said
that the company would keep statistics OF the
traffic on the 14t-street cars, and let those inter-
eSted see the figures. He did not believe that
they desired the company to do anything unrea-
sOnable. He would, he said, have the double cars
run In the morning, SO that the last one would
reach the junction at three minutes to 8. This
fast would take up those who wait for the last
minute before starting for their Offices In the
afternoon the double cars, he said, would be run
until they had "cleaned up" the heavy traffic that
follows the closing OF the Departments at O'Clock.
The purpose, he said, was to arrange for housing
cars in the 14th-Street stables, and thus make the
service permanent and reliable
